The Million-Dollar Heart by Rebecca Ryan

The internet was ablaze, and Percival's live stream was flooded with tens of thousands of comments.
"Karen's remark about the tea being excellent really hit the mark."
"If you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen. The Wright family of Rivenwood is getting a thumbs up from me."
"Is this what passes for a lady these days?"
"A total knockout. Alyssa and her sidekick should take a hike."
"Completely disregarding the audience. If you can't handle defeat, don't play."
"Everyone, check out the latest tweet from Vivienne, the master of whispers and scent. Huge news!"
Vivienne's tweet instantly moved Alyssa from the top spot on the trending list to second place, making Vivienne the new hot topic.
The video showed Karen lying in Arthur's arms, looking serene and smiling sweetly, their affectionate interaction making many jealous.
When Alyssa and Kate entered, trying to feign innocence, Karen's sharp retort cut through their act.
Alyssa soon dropped her facade, openly stating Karen wasn't worthy because of her background.
In front of War God, Alyssa tried to compete with Karen, arrogantly dismissing her and even bragging about her own family and education in an attempt to drive Karen away, accusing her of clinging to War God through Vivienne!
The video exposed Alyssa and Kate in a very unflattering light.
The comments section of Vivienne's Twitter was overrun, with one comment rising to the top, "So Karen is Vivienne's mother??"
Vivienne, with a slight raise of her eyebrows, tapped her screen lightly and replied to Mr. Plump: "Yes, the only one!"
Her reply sparked a flurry of responses.
"Watching the live! I had a bit of sympathy for Alyssa, but now she totally brought it upon herself. A slap on the face would be too kind."
"First time seeing someone so eager to be the other woman, and so boldly! I wish I could jump in and slap her a few times!"
"How could such a woman even dream of War God? She's no match for Karen!"
"Karen is so badass! Truly a queen! Now I see where Vivienne gets it from. Alyssa is just a damsel in distress, and her friend is no better, thinking they're above everyone else."
"Like mother, like daughter. No wonder Vivienne is so formidable. Karen totally outclasses Alyssa!"
When Kate reopened the live stream, all she saw were insults.
The comments were relentless against Alyssa and just as harsh against her.
Her personal information was laid bare, and everyone knew this was Kate's account.
People came from Twitter just to insult her.
"Both of you, just birds of a feather, Alyssa's lapdog!"
"The perfect duo of hypocrites! A live view of Queen Karen schooling!"
Terrified, Kate hastily shut down the live stream, her face ghostly pale, her heart nearly leaping out of her chest. Despite her attempt to escape the online
onslaught, they continued to harass her through direct messages until she fainted in shock.
Alyssa screamed, "Kate, wake up! Call an ambulance!"
Arthur glanced over coldly and scoffed, "A spectacle of ugliness."
He then initiated a live vote, linking it to the stage's big screen, showcasing the results in real-time.
Pink for Karen, blue for Alyssa.
The pink side soared like a rocket, overwhelming in its growth, while the blue
barely moved and finally inched forward a bit too late.
The public's choice was a blatant humiliation for Alyssa.
Alyssa felt a bitter taste in her throat, her face burning with shame and anger like never before. Her pride was trampled, and she wouldn't allow it.
Fire blazed in her eyes as she lost all
reason, pointing at Karen and

shouting, "You shameless wretch, what dirty tricks did you use to win? Seducing everyone, even Arthur!"

After her tirade, she stumbled toward a painting of jasmine flowers Karen had made, intent on destroying it.
Just as she grasped the top of the painting, a swift kick sent her reeling, her hand swelling with pain.
Karen caught the painting with ease, her voice icy, "If you ruined my painting,
selling you wouldn't cover the loss!"
Alyssa, red-eyed and trembling, charged at Karen, aiming a slap at her.
Karen stood firm, unflinching.

Karen, arms crossed, smirked, "I might be an outsider, but you can't even lay a finger on me."
With ease, she lifted Alyssa by the collar like tossing out trash, Alyssa flailing helplessly, her screams turning into a pathetic spectacle for all to see.
After throwing her down, Karen wiped her hands with a tissue, looking disgusted.
She glanced at Alyssa, delivering a kick that left her pale and sweating with pain, tears streaming down her face.
Karen's lips curled into a smile, "Dealing with you is like playing with a monkey.
Got it?"
Alyssa, terrified, backed away, her body shaking with fear.
Arthur's eyes blazed with fury as he sneered, "Throw these two women out and make sure they never step foot in the Linklater estate again!"
Alyssa's eyes were filled with despair, her face etched with profound sadness as
she pleaded, "Arthur..."
Arthur cut her off with a harsh retort, "Shut your mouth, don't play the family card
with me!"
